Three years at Dreamstime     posted on 23rd of april, 2011
Exactly 3 years ago I signed up with Dreamstime!

If it hadn't been for Dreamstime I'd maybe have given up trying to get into microstock. While I was faced with applications elsewhere that were almost impossible to pass for beginners (x out of y images need to be great or wait another month till ya may try again... and stuff like that), Dreamstime just rejected my bad images and accepted the good ones :)
So I kept shooting and uploading! Soon I got my first download and then the second one... Wow, that felt just awesome!!
